Feb 23, 2019

This is scary. Video of a pilot napping while flying has hit the internet. Reports say the pilot is a senior officer for China Airlines. He was flying a Boeing 747. The co-pilot took the video and other pictures of the nap. The pilot was disciplined for the nap. The co-pilot was also chastised for not waking the pilot up. Do you wonder what goes on in the cockpit during a flight? Does the thought of a pilot falling asleep make you afraid to fly?
